Looks like your big truck got a little jealous of the little truck getting a new trans

Rick....What's a good diagnostic tool to monitor these 6.0s.
Still has a lack of power at low rpm. Haven't pulled the turbo apart yet so it maybe stuck vanes in the VGT.

The solus or verus are both solid.
Lack of power at low rpm sounds like maybe an egr issue

6.0 is a ford engine and really not worth the effort to keep one running, you have to remove the cab to pull the heads, the serp belt is a rube goldberg-esk disaster. One that is running right is a horse but that is one in five.

Pulled the EGR....it was clean. But to be honest.....I never looked to see if it was open or closed.

Ya gotta love an engine that will not start because of a $.78 o-ring that cost $1,500 to replace

My dog woulda left a present for the (spring) golfers. Like I found with my shoe tonight.

Not to belittle or downplay the impact of alcoholism, but after the day I had today, I need to drink a lot more.

I came home and had 3 shots right away. Couple more with dinner.

Maybe it's a sad reflection upon me. Or maybe it's a comment on society. Maybe I need more hobbies and past times. But when I was so ridiculously frustrated today, the only legal and socially acceptable way for me to vent was to go drink. Reading a book or doing pilates or duct taping a cardboard boat weren't going to cut it. Maybe I'm an anti-social a-hole, but driving a car or riding a motorcycle in anger isn't socially acceptable. I'm not allowed to go ride a mountain bike after dark off pavement. I don't have the time to waste signing up for a gym or tennis club membership. So I came home and downed 3 shots (having last eaten about 23 hours before). What else was I going to do that I wouldn't regret the next day?

I beg to differ the beer is for pussies.... Try some of that 9.5% Belgian beer and get back to me... If you can, but pretty sure you'll be passed out on the floor.
